Thanksgiving Recipes
Pimento Cheese Spread
This cheddar-based dip is just the right balance of cheesy, peppery, and tangy and can be enjoyed in so many ways. A Southern classic! Last weekend, my in-laws celebrated 50 wonderful years of marriage with a family trip to The Greenbriar in West Virginia. Their three children along with spouses, significant others and eight grandchildren…
Maple Tamari Roasted Almonds and Cashews
These tasty little bites are a sweet-and-savory spin on my classic recipe for Tamari Almonds. People often use tamari as a gluten-free option to soy sauce, but after reading the label of the bottle of tamari I had in my cupboard–and seeing wheat as an ingredient–I did a little more investigating. By way of The Kitchn, I found…
Pumpkin Bran Muffins (with optional 2-ingredient frosting)
The classic bran muffin meets a whole can of pumpkin in this wholesome recipe that the whole family will love! Bran muffins are a seemingly wholesome way to start the day, yet so many bran muffins rely on sugar and oil to create moisture and flavor… Enter pumpkin! These satisfying muffins offer the health benefits…
Chipotle Maple Sweet Potato Soup
My good friend, Sonali, is an ER physician, wife and mother of an adorable toddler. In her “spare” time, she authors The Foodie Physician blog and writes cookbooks. (I know what you’re thinking…I don’t think she sleeps!) Sonali kindly asked to include several of my Greek yogurt-inspired recipes in her recently published The Greek Yogurt…
Maple Pumpkin Pie
Easy to make and delightful to eat, you may find yourself baking this pie well after the holiday season. For a pudding-like option, skip the crust and bake the filling in a lightly greased baking dish or individual ramekins. If I counted the number of times Iโve made this recipe for “testing”…
Almond Flour Pie Crust (gluten-free)
A scrumptious grain-free pie crust is easy to make with this recipe and a few helpful hints. Perfect for all your favorite fillings! The perfect pie deserves the perfect crust.ย Traditional rolled crusts can be daunting for many, and some simply can’t eat the wheat flour. ย Whatever the reason, this nutty, cookie-like crust is a…
Turkey Tetrazzini with Mushrooms and Kale
This update on the classic casserole is lighter, leaner, and loaded with wholesome vegetables. It’s a complete meal that can be made in advance and freezes well. If you have leftover Thanksgiving turkey, tetrazzini is a perfect way to enjoy it in a whole new way. If there are no leftovers to speak of,…
Secret Ingredient Chocolate Peanut Butter Skillet Cookie
A happy fusion of a fudgy brownie and the perfect peanut butter cookie, this grain-free dessert can be dairy-free with the use of dairy-free chocolate chips. When I purchase a new product, I often look to see if thereโs a recipe on the package. Until I started The Fountain Avenue Kitchen, I never thought…
Gladys Langford’s Apple Cake
On occasion in this space, I have mentioned the inspiration for The Fountain Avenue Kitchen–my maternal grandmother, Gladys Langford. Amazing aromas continuously wafted from her narrow kitchen, but it was her spunk and zest for life that made people want to sit down in that cozy space and stay a while. Day in and day…
Pumpkin Ginger Cookies
The addition of pumpkin supplies moisture and enhances the spices in this otherwise traditional (and utterly delicious!) ginger-molasses cookie. A few weeks ago, I bumped into a friend and walked away with a bag of egg replacer in my hands. ย If this sounds a little strange, read on… Phil Lapp and his wife, Laura, are…
Whole-Can-of-Pumpkin Baked Oatmeal
Last fall, a friend mentioned that when she uses part of a can of pumpkin, the leftover portion always seems to go bad before she gets a chance to finish it. To avoid this problem, feel free to click on the link to my Pumpkin Roundup, below. But also consider giving the following recipe a…
